Designed by Adolph Weinman, who also designed the popular Walking Liberty Coin, the obverse of the round dipicts lady liberty with a winged Pharygian cap.
The reverse portrays an eagle behind a shield grasping an olive branch in its right talon and arrows in its left talon, echoing the Great Seal of the United States. Above the eagle are a series of five-point starts and inscribed are the phrases UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 1 Ounce .999 Fine Copper, and E PLURIBUS UNUM (on the banner that the eagle holds in its beak), as well as the mintmark of Golden State Mint.
